Dieting-Redefined! "Uncouple Weight from Self-Esteem"
Struggling this year to stay on that diet? Finding dieting to be a dismal experience?
Half the battle of dieting is how our mind defines the experience. A negative definition leads to negative results. A positive definition can be the foundation for success!
In redefining dieting, one crucial component of this is "uncoupling weight from self-esteem." Right now, no matter what your weight, if you are looking to lose 15 lbs or 150lbs, you are a wonderful person!!
There is no doubt, as you reach your weight goals, you will feel "better", healthier and have more energy. A few extra compliments may also come along the way. But remember as you begin the process of redefining dieting, start with a healthy and positive definition of YOU!
Right now you look good, have tremendous value and have an amazing ability to love and show kindness to others! Use it! Help others, volunteer at an organization that you believe in, write an encouraging letter to a friend or relative or visit your new neighbor down the street!
Don't equate weight with your self-esteem! It's not in your weight but in you!
